HIGH MINDED HEN
C. Bla6er hunted a hen's nest all
last Summer on his place down on
Leyerich lake, but without avail.
The hen would go up on the side
hill, lay her egg, and then cackle
in derision. Blaser would go up
and hunt, while the hen would juBl
cackle a little louder.
Lite this Spring he chopped
down a fir, anil ninety feet from
the slump he found, where the tree
forked, a hen's nest, with teveral
youDg chickens, dead, and several
eggs that were not fit for easter
eeivice. There had been an old
tree leaning from the steep bank,
wmcn reacneu witbm a few feet of
the crotch of tbe tree in which the
nest was located and tbe hen went
out on tbe incline and took up a
ncmeetead on the standing timber.
While ehe was hatching tbe lean
ing tree fell and when the chicks
came put of the shell they could
not get to terra nrma, and neither
could the old hen get back. Ninety
feet is pretty high, but Blaser still
has the rule with which he
measured the tree:
